Staples Upholstery
September 5th, 2008
Looking to recover a couple chairs, what type of fabric am I looking for?
So I’m getting into DIY projects. I have my new staple gun and a couple flea market chairs. Wood body that I’m repainting, cushions that need new fabric. Now I’m searching for some fabric online. The first few aren’t going to be that great but you get better. Got my paint booth set up as well.
So on amazon there are over 60,000 fabric results and it would be much faster if I could limit it by fabric type. Ok I don’t want jersey, lace, taffeta or vinyl but batik, batiste, broadcloth? calico, muslin?
If anyone just had a basic idea of what fabric works for this it would be helpful. I don’t want it to be too lightweight.
I don’t want to buy expensive upholstery fabric until I at least get half decent at it.
It depends on what look you want. If you want them dressy you could go with a velvet. You could use denim, chenille, chintz, or canvas. Use something with a little thickness to it because if you use batik or batiste it will not work so well. I will use most anything if I like the patterns but I just want it to be a little thicker than most clothing fabrics. When you staple the fabric to the bottom of the chair just make sure the fabric on the corners is evenly distributed. I staple the sides first and do the corners last. Good luck with your project. BTW if you are using the chairs in a kitchen setting oil cloth is a great choice. The fabric usually has a modern look to it and it has a plastic coating so all you have to do is wipe it off. Just an idea…
